WHY...So i can see you and don't shoot towards you. That's why i think a Orange hat or something should be used to let me know your 200yds across the field or creak bottom from me. Heck i would probably move if i saw you. The Orange doesn't bother the Deer trust me. It's the movement that they notice. Be safe guy's, it's just not worth it any other way. I disagree completely I rather wear orange by choice, not be forced to wear it. NY does not have a hunters orange requirement, 1 reason they dont have it is because NY has a high rate of hunters wearing orange voluntarily. as a NY hunter i dont have to wear orange yet i wear it even when hunting my own land. i rather wear it by choice, not be forced to wear it by regulations. |
Blaze Orange vest for all hunting seasons and I hang it on my stand during archery season. Better safe than a bullet or arrow in my butt.

Not me. My clothes just go into the wash without any detergent.
Im not a believer in all those scent stoppers/cover BS. Why don't you just stand in the rain with your clothes on? :p |
certain detergent like downy makes me itchy and break out in hives on my legs and stomach. Im a very sensitive little boy you know :s1:

thanks ray i will give that a go this season! They really are proud of those wash detergents price wise!
i normally put my hunting clothes into a plastic bag and use one of those little discs that smell like dirt and seal it up. Works good for a couple days. After that i smell like ATV Exhaust LOL. |

Try this one. http://www.armandhammer.com/fabric-c...-dye-free.aspx |
I used to use baking soda but now I use Sport Wash. Just a capful (1 oz) does an entire load of my hunting clothing. Then, even though I hunt the wind, I alway use Scent Shield. And several times I had deer so close I could have almost reached out and touched them.
As for the orange thing. I only wear it when required. And I too have not noticed any difference in deer detecting it. And I only hunt public land where there is considerable pressure. |
